Tailian Lorestones

Letters to the future written by the dwarves of the Tailian Islands. They were written upon massive stones near the top of the mountains of Lren around the end of the Age of Realms. The hopes of the dwarves were to use these stones to preserve history so that it would never happen again. However, at some point in time the stones were shattered by an unknown Divine worshiper. Their history somehow was able to be preserved, though not entirely, through the Tailian card game, Eldritch Draw.

In November, 1537 AC, The Newlyweds discovered and repaired the lorestones though the ending of the final message is still lost to history.
